Monitoring Priority Biocides 2016: Active substances in the group of neonicotinoids
Description
Experts from the Federal Environment Agency examined the content and concentrations of the active substances imidacloprid, clothianidine, thiamethoxam, acetamiprid from the group of neonicotinoids and fipronil in selected insecticides. Of the 18 biocidal products containing a neonicotinoid or fipronil, three products had a lower active substance content compared to labelling. For the other 15 biocidal products, the concentration data on the active substances contained were largely consistent with the measurement results. Neonicotinoids other than those indicated have also not been detected. In addition, an additional eight biocidal products without appropriate labelling were checked for their content of neonicotinoids or fipronil. In all these cases no neonicotinoids were detected.
